in the entire conference Experts
look forward not only to improve
ment in the ebeese lndustry but a
big development in the production

Since the British tariff against
foreign condensed milk came into

placed in this country by British
and some plants have had to

is is regarded by experts in the
industry as s very important
development, as much more money
is left in the country than when
e milk is made into either but

Canada's cheese gets a premium
over all other imported cheese in

the volume fell off steadily for
years There are great possibilities

The cause of the tremendous fall

Programme Of Re

M..
ST JOHNS, Nfld July 26-(By
The Canadian Press)-A syndicate
of Canadian banks tonight moved
to guard this capital from further
damage at the hands of its des
perato unemployed. Following a
night oi disorder during which oev
eral stores were broken and robbed
and a day of anxiety, represent
atives of the banks announced they
would advance the $100,000 requir
ed to fnance programme of work
for relief of the unemployed
Negotiations for the loan were
opened by Premier F C Alderdice
before he left for the Imperial
Economic Conference at Ottawa
After his departure the restless un
employed looked to Hon. H A
Winter, K. C, acting premier, for
announcement that the work was
to proceed When no definite as
aurance was forthcoming yester
day, the men called a meeting,
and last night about 400 of their
marched to Winter avenue and
halted at the residence of Mr
Winter.
Informed that Mr Winter was not
at home, they returned to the city
and on Water Street a. number of
youths with the crowd broke sev
eral plate glass windows Police
rushed in the scene of disorders
and before midnight the greater
number of demonstrators were be
leived to be on their way home
ward Not long, after midnight
however, fresh outbreaks of viol
ence were reported, and the city
feared a repetition of riots earlier
in the year, when, on one occasion,
the unemployed forced their way
into the Colonial Building and
caused s disturbance in which Sir
Richard Squires then Premier,
was injured, and on another coca
sion thousands stormed the build
ing and forced the Premier to flee
the city
Early tlus morning windows were
broken on New Gower Street and
several stores were robbed. Police
met the mob in a head on combat
between New Gower and Water
Streets and claimed victory after
placing eighteen of the ringleaders
in irons. One policeman was injured
in the fray and is now in the hos
pital Special officers were sworn
in to augment the police force, and
by daylight the city was quiet
Business went on as usual today
Tonight seveai hundred police pat
rolled the streets, ready to cope
with any further demonstrations
There was little likelihood of fur
I ther riots however, because the
men repeatedly assured the Govern
ment they want work and not

with eiploratlon of the British
meat market, the main conference
committee on Commonwealth trade
opened examination of the highly
important question of Empire con
tent, I. E the percentage of Em
pire materials or labor which an
article must contain to Qualify for
customs entry under Empire pre
farential rates.
Until a few years ago, the rate
generally in force throughout the
Empire was 25 per cent but vari
ous Empire units have so modified
their required percentage of Empire
content that there is now complete
lack of uniformity Barring excep
tions made in the case of special
products, the Empire content per
cantagos now generally required
are Great Britain 35 Canada, 50,
Australia 'ls New Zealand, 50,
South Africa, 25 Irish Free State
India fixes no percentage figure
on Empire content Sho grants
British preference only on cotton
piece goods and ixbn and steel, and
on these. she requires the manufac
turing processes to be carried out
entirely in the British country of
origin
The tax before the committee on
Commonwealth trade is to endeavor
to bring the percentage of Empire
content more into line A sub
committee was appointed to con
sider the comparative advantages
(1) High Empire content with
exceptions downward
(2) Low Empire content with ex
captions upward
lib! Canada, discussions of Em
pI‘r`o content are of particular con
sequence British industria‘lsts have
been moving for an increase in the
British rate of Empire content
They urge that it is not high
enough to prevent the American
manufacturer from sending parts
to Canaig, assembling them in a
Canadian branch factory, and ship
ping the finished product to Great
Britain under British preferential
rates If the British rate of 25 Der
cent were increased to the Canadian
rate of 50 per cent, Canadian labor
would, it is argued, benefit in pro
portion
Tomorrow, monetary standards of
the Empire will be considered ha a
special committee under the chair
manship of Hon H H Stevens.

for Canada.

ustlce to all fishermen
A prominent fisherman from Vic
toria said that fishermen were com
ing up from New Brunswick in
large numbers to fish in these wat
ers He expressed the view that as
the lobster ground is poor in these
waters and in view of the fact that
the Island fishermen had been
careful ln following out the instruc
tions of the Fisheries Department
and had brought the production up
from 3,000 to 20,000 for a fisher
man's catch he considered that
some protection should be given to
Island men so as not to kill out the
ground About 25 years ago there
was only one season, but as it was
found that a later season was bet
ter for the south side this was
granted but that this should be for
the benefit of the residents of
that territory Another opinion ex
pressed was that if such increasing
numbers of fishermen are working
there will be a slump on the mar
ket which will lower the price and
the fishermen would be the ones to
suffer. There was never any trou
ble until this year
Mr McCarthy, of Tignish who
was closely in touch with the fish
ing industry said he did not come
up to represent any side, but felt
that the fishermen on the south
side had a just cause for dissatis
faction, but that it was the natural
outcome of hard times. It was the
right of Canadian fishermen to fish
in their own locality and this can-
not be overlooked. The remedy is
difficult For some years past fish
ermen from Tignlsh have been sol
iclted by dealers to go to the South
Shore. The people of West Point
and Eginont Bay have treated them
they naturally want to conserve
their own bread and butter One of
the reasons of the increasing num
ber of North Shore fishermen go
ing over to the south is the failure
of the cod fishing as there is no
market for them A brine freezing
plant had been established at much
cost, but had to be abandoned He
felt that at this late date a solu
tion could not be found. His long
association with the fishermen as
sured him that they would deal
with this matter in a reasonable
way, and perhaps find aI solution
themselves The New Brunswick
newspapers had exaggerated the
episode at West Point. The fisher
men on the south side have a real
cause for grievance and did right to
call the attention of the onlcials
to the matter. 'l."here were very
few fishermen from the south side
went over to the north side Mr
McCarthy felt the situation would
be more difficult if the N IB
and N’ S. fishermen had to be
dealt with as well as the Island 9
After a few more remarks along
the same lines from different ones
in the gathering Mr. Sutherland
addressed the men. He said that
he felt the Island fishermen were
of a very high calibre to be able to
discuss such a vital question sc
fairly and quietly The Department
at Ottawa liked to ace as many
fishermen take as many lobsters se
ponible during the season without
inillry or deiiletills the industry
and everyflshermenlladariglltto

the fishermen that came after
them. The Island catches have
been better and the lndustry in a
healthier condition than in the
other Maritime Provinces The Dub~
